The local Meijer by our house (it's like a Super WalMart, only family owned, a higher quality of products, and without all the baggage associated with WalMart) did something like this last night. Local police and firefighters collected donations and they took about 20 kids in the foster system to Meijer and they were able to get clothes and toys for Christmas. It was super awesome. I mean, it wasn't "meet an NFL superstar and fill a cart with toys" awesome but it was "here's $200 worth of toys and clothes" awesome.

Goomba:Andre Johnson does this every year. Wide receivers have a reputation for being divas and assholes, but the best receivers from the past decade (Dre, Megatron & Fitzgerald) are quiet, classy guys.

An Atari Flashback? Someone needs to have a talk with this young-un. The big Lego set was thinking right, but you need to learn to recognize the QVC crap and head for the quality, like Transformers, Hot Wheels tracks, and of course XBox One and PS4's.

Personally, I'd just be happy with about two hours alone with the two cheerleaders. Probably not in a Toys 'R' Us, though.

FriarReb98:Harv72b: Well that's a much nicer holiday gift than forcing the kids to watch a Texans game.

Amen.

MeatGazer: Should I win the MegaMillions...

I'm so doing this. And so many other things.

But anonymously.

True enough. I'd try and figure out creative ways to do it to make kids believe in magic, Santa, what have you....

\also be building the mother of all band practice facilities

ONE of the things I'd do - eyeglass / eye health charities. There's a lot of folks out there who simply can't afford yearly exams and "decent looking" glasses.

Is it shallow? I don't know. But I see a lot of men, women, and kids walking around the Walmart with the biggest non-hipster-trend glasses. Guess I believe it's because they can't afford anything better.

Eh...maybe I'm just a tiny bit selfish, but I'd be trying to take over the world from my secret volcano lair.

Think of it this way, you can do it all from the secret lair, but if you do all this nice stuff, let it go on for years, then drop that it is you doing it, how many folks will start following what you do, listening to you, doing what you want.

That REALLY sounds shallow. Sheesh.

Don't the Lions Clubs (not the football Lions...) do the eyeglasses thing?

I think I'd still prefer a mind-control beam. Or some sort of doomsday device.
